Speaker 1 (00:00):
Welcome to Daughter Issues. I'm your host, David C. Smalley.
My guest today is to listen.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
You get it wrong every time, my guest today, guest.
But it's called daughter issues. Let's think that. No, let's
just think about it.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Look, okay, look, you should actually open the show anyway,
because this one is yours.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Yeah, but I end the show, and your whole attitude
is that if.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
This podcast is ended, this podcast is ended.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
You just here to PMO, aren't you do you know
what that means?
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Okay, PMO, pull my octopus?
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (00:33):
No, oh, piss me off?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Oh okay, getting there, just.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Here to piss me off? The context help me out. Okay,
we're doing gen z slang.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
They are doing gen Z's Welcome back to Daughter Issues.
We're going to be doing gen Z slang.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
We did gen Z slang once.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Part two.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
We've had this podcast for a while. We have almost
two years now or maybe yet two years.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
That's crazy, and it's just now starting to look like this.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yeah, thanks Daniel, Thanks Daniel.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Now this is very when I say, gen Z.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Hold on, what is going on with your fingernails right now?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Do you have a problem.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's like the Wizard of Oz gave you one.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Wish and I would ask for these every time.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
My goodness, only what I can think of, fabulous, thank you.
It looks like something Jeremy Charles would be like click
click click.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Mm. You can't get his name right, Christopher Charles, James Charles,
James Charles or Jeffrey Star. There's not just too. By
the way, there's multiple makeup artists.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
They're all one of those two.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Okay, anyway, this is very gen Z slaying like packed.
I would say the average gen Z doesn't use a
lot of these. I guess it's act actually kind of,
it's actually kind of I wanna call it ironic, almost
like on purpose, like I'll use a lot of slang
to be silly, not in my everyday to be serious.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Okay, so.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
This was I asked, Okay, I'm gonna nail it. Let
me just get real hold on. I asked chat GBT
to give me a paragraph just packed with gen Z slang.
And I know what it means, but no one would
ever actually say it, of course, and it's very cringey,
but that's what we're here for. You have to kind
of tell me what it means. But I think first
(02:34):
I'm going to do some individual words and we're just
gonna kind of get an idea of what you know about.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Okay, I've been. I've been in the comments section of
TikTok right, so I think I know most of these.
I'm gonna I feel like I'm going to do pretty good.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
I do think with the individual words, you're gonna get it.
The paragraph, I think is where you're gonna have some
some issues.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I think the opposite, because I think with the paragraph,
I'll have context. So yeah, but sure.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
There's not much context ready.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Okay. The paragraph is like all slang English and kind
nobody would talk like that. I see what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
No, I guess well you'll you'll find out.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Okay, I can't wait for this paragraph.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
I think you'll know most of the ones, the ones
I'm about to say, so we'll see.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Wait, are the ones that you're gonna ask me? Also
in the paragraph, I.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Don't think so or maybe some okay, maybe some bring
it okay, riz.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Oh I know that one that's like charisma.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah, it sure for charisma. It is just about the hands, like, okay.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Charisma no cap No cap means I'm not lying, you know,
drip is cool clothes.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Okay, yeah, yeah, NPC.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
I think that refers to like a game character. I
think it's non player character, meaning it's like a person
in a video game that's like a running around bumping
into shit that they don't actually like, there's not a
person controlling it. Yeah, and so I think gen Z
would refer to just like a generic human in that way,
(04:19):
like they don't do anything with their lives. They get up,
go to work, eat their sandwich, go home. They have
nothing to strive for. They don't care about anything. They're
an NPC kind of saying somebody is boring or a
background character. The l word.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Oh right, totally, yeah, definitely not Okay. Eight when someone
says eight, what does that mean? Not the numbers?
Speaker 1 (04:44):
How would they spell it? Oh, someone did very well
at something.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
They left no crumb.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
She ate that and left no crumb.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Oh yeah, this is great Jeremy Charles clut And then
what about like it's giving I say that one. I
say that one.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
It's giving is like it's kind of what it means,
like what it says, like it's giving the vibe of
something else, like it's reminding me of this certain thing.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Okay, good, mid.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Mid range, middle meh, not impressed, average average.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah, busting, I'm crushing it.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, busting. I'm busting right now. Oh my god, I'm busting,
busting what I'm I'm doing good.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I'm like, my inside's hurt. I'm so uncomfortable even saying
these words.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Busting means good usually what about food?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Okay, good?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, this food's busting?
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yeah okay, correct, ready, Yeah, that used to.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Mean something else when someone was busting what they were
being separated by color to go to schools. Oh, they
were busting into the neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Oh yeah, it's not good.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
They were being bust Well, it was good.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
So it's got somewhat of a new meaning.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Soft launch.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Okay, well, I know what that means in the business world.
So I don't know what the hell gen Z did
to this one. So I don't know, but I'm going
to say in the business world it means, you know,
I kind of did a soft launch with my my album.
They came out. I didn't tell anybody, Oopsie, Daisy, I
guess it just came out, but I I released it,
(06:32):
but I didn't promote it because I had also just
filmed my comedy special. So it wasn't like a hard
launch where I was like, everybody, go get this. I
have to drop this new album. I just did it
and didn't say anything. That's like a soft launch.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
So how would gen Z use it? Let me actually,
let me see if it's in the paragraph, because if
it is, I'm not going to tell you what it means.
If it's not lunch.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I'm gonna say gen Z means gen Z is using
that to mean like like they didn't really try that hard.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Okay, it is in the paragraphs. I'm not going to
tell you, but I think you'll get it immediately.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I'm not right, No, okay, slaps that's what you get
when you stay out too late.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Okay, that's no, that's the gen experts.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Yeah, gen Z, something's busting.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Okay, sure slaps. How would you use it?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Chicken slaps?
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Okay, yeah, that's good. Let me see. Uh you know, Sleigh,
I'll use that one.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Something, Queen Sleigh Hunt. It's all in that.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah, I know you've got us.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Say that means do well, my friend? What okaylease do well?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:59):
No, no, you're doing very well. You look great.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Your outfit is Sleigh.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Oh you look very not like Santa.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
You're you're slaying right now?
Speaker 1 (08:10):
You are slaying. Yeah, so you're saying slay to someone
who's already accomplishing that.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Yes, like if they're But if.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
They're already doing it, why are you yelling it at
the person?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
What do you mean? You mean like you look good?
That's why you're yelling at the person. It's a compliment.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Why not you have slayed that?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
They say that?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Oh, okay, that's correct. You are slaying this episode.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Capy Bear Vibes.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Friendly with everyone. Capy Bearers don't really have enemies. They
just like cuddle up and everyone's the homie.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
I feel like I would take that one. But but
you're not using the right words.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Is it a ho?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
What?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
No? Why are you so offended because.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That you just said you just took a hard left turn?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Well, you said I wouldn't take it that. I'm like,
it's somebody who's friendly with everyone might be a little
too friendly.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
There given Wow, No, No, what what would it mean
if someone's giving Caby bearra vibes that. No, you were
onto something.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
You said, I took a hard left turn. So I
was trying to come.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Back to part but before that being friendly.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
You said someone's too nice. Yeah, they push over? Okay,
am I getting am I not slay? Uh?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
You got it somewhat. Let me see if it's in
my paragraph. I don't think it is. Yeah, no it's not.
It means that someone is very chill, unbothered, like energy,
so like you're onto something when you're like very friendly,
doesn't have enemies. There's someone just really chill and unbothered.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
But most hells are pretty bothered.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
So you're you're you're not wrong about that? Uh you
know glow up mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah, that you used to look busted and now you're slaying.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
That was good, okay? Uh?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Stan, So y'all got this from us? This was uh?
This is an eminem song.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Stan is like a like a fan of someone. They're
they're they're like completely yeah, you got it, obsessed with someone.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
It's also used and that's kind of what says here
too to too strongly supports someone or obsess over. But
we also will use it like if someone makes a
good point like Stan, like it's kind of wow.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
It's all way out to I stand that moment.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Yes, yeah, yeah, like almost like preach like stand yeah,
kind of Yeah, I would not have known that, you know, POV.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Uh just like personal view from a perspective, someone's perspective.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Just point of view.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Okay, yeah, yeah, what did I say personal view?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Oh you know why when you work in a place
that has a fleet of cars that you would drive,
like pest Control, police cab, you have a car that
you're assigned to. POV is your personally owned vehicle. So
I was using p for personal I wasn't thinking of
a point of view. But yeah, core memory, Oh yeah,
(11:45):
I mean that's it is what it says. It's a
core memory for a like a child from your.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Childhood, nostalgic moment or memory. Sometimes though people will say
they feel like they're living in one.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Currently something huge happens, you're car memory.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yeah. Absolutely. Doom scrolling.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I feel like I do this every night. My algorithm
thinks that's all I want to see. So I feel
like doom scrolling is just like upsetting or bad news,
and you're just like scrolling through like your Instagram feed
and it's just or your TikTok feed and it's it's
(12:28):
just horrible stuff. So yes, and an algorithm are like, oh,
you've been watching a lot of this stuff. Here's more
Donald Trump, and then here's more Donald Trump. And guess
what city he's taking over now? Oh, and guess what
else is illegal? And now gay people can't get married again,
and guess what, and guess what and guess.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
What and you're just like a So you're right, but
people kind of use it now, not really in just
that it's bad news, like doom scrolling is almost just
like you get in a loop. Not a loop, but
you're like locked in and you just kind of mindlessly
are scrolling. So I think the original definition, you're right,
but people use it now to mean kind of like
(13:06):
you just doom scroll. You just you start, you open
the app, and you're just scrolling because you're now doomed.
Do you already open the app? Kind of you're doomed, yeah,
like you're locked in kind of No, you can't stop
scrolling basically scrolling.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
You can't stop, So it's not you don't think it's
about the content anymore.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
I think some people use it that way, but I've
seen other people just use it.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
To be like I'm locked into scrolling.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, here comes the paragraph.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Oh I thought that was a phrase jenl z No,
I'm like jin that means about to say a lot.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
God, this one's I can't.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Even you gotta get through it without messing up so
that we can post it.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Okay, well wow, no pressure things yeah and action. No,
this is bad. Okay, ready, this is horrible. This is
this is bad. Ready no cap. I was straight vibing
at this NPC live stream and this dude with mad
Riz totally ate and left no crumbs. But then my
(14:04):
ex soft launched her situationship and it was giving beige
flag energy, so I dipped to touch grass. But then
I started doom scrolling and got ratioed, which was low
key mid, but the playlist was busting, so I still slayed.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Period period, period is that period with a D and
then in T at the end, all right, a couple
of things in there I didn't catch.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Yeah, I get it for me. There's a couple things
in that I didn't catch. Ratiode I have no idea
what that means. We just read that section again. Yeah,
so I got ratio is that what it said?
Speaker 2 (14:45):
But then I started doom scrolling and got ratioed, which
was low key mid, but the playlist was busting' so
I still slayed.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Yeah, I get I get all that. I don't understand
what I got. Ratio means.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Got ratio considering it like kind of an insult, Like,
but how.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Would they get ratioed by just scrolling?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
You must have to do with how.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Would someone be insulted by? How would how would someone
get insulted by just scrolling?
Speaker 2 (15:19):
By being on social media?
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Oh so doom strolling doesn't just mean scrolling, it just
means I got on social media.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
No, doom scrolling usually means you got locked into scrolling
and you can't stop. Some people maybe it's bad news.
Some people use it as just like.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Maybe it's scrolling but also interacting with posts.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
No, I think what they're saying is is you started
do you were doom scrolling, You were just scrolling, but
while on the app, you go to your page or
you go to to do other things on social media,
and then you find out you got ratio? Okay, that's yeah,
I guess. Okay, it's when a reply gets more likes
(15:57):
than the original posts.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Oh the ratio? So oh yeah, you know what's funny
is I often use the term ratio to talk about
how a post is going to take off or it's
not going to do well. Use the ratio. Yeah, and
so when when there's comments, a lot of comments and
not a lot of likes, that means all the comments
are disagreeing or trashing your content. Yeah, right, what was it?
(16:24):
There was another word in there that I didn't catch.
There was one more word.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
I'm so glad that's over.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I need you to read that paragraph again, the whole thing. Yeah,
so I can find the word.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Can I guess the word?
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I think you're still trying to figure out soft launch.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Yep, I think that may have been it. But go
ahead and read it just so to make sure.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
No, Cap I was straight. You are evil? What do
you mean because you give an eyes to the camera. No,
you're malicious.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I'm not. I'm dating.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
No, Cap, I was straight.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
VI.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
I've been at this NPC live stream and this dude
with mad Riz totally ate and left no crumbs. But
then my ex soft launched her such relationship and it
was giving beige flag energy, So I.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Know that is what beige flag energy, not green, not
red boring? Is beige flag energy boring?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Ummm No, I feel like I feel like started to
give maybe maybe boring, but I would see beige flag
and maybe any look that one up beige flag, I
would see as like like oh like yet like a
yellow flag, but I don't think the one says yellow
flag like not quite a red flag, but it's like
(17:31):
almost red. Like you started getting maybe suspicious sus if
you will. Okay, for the purpose of that.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Started over because the the you are full. No, no, no, no,
I want to hear. No, I want to hear the
situationship soft launch line. So just start at the beginning.
Be crunching into the mic. I don't edit this podcast anymore,
so you're just making problems for Daniel.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
No, you don't have to listen to it later. Okay, Okay,
you are doing this on purpose.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Horse connect with my audience out there. You have your camera,
I have mine.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Just started over, please, I kind of want you to
read it. No, you got it, fam no cap. I
was straight vibin at this NPC live stream and this
dude with Madras totally ate and left no crumbs. But
then my ex soft launched her Situationship and it was
giving beige flag energy. So I dipped to touch grass
(18:33):
and then I started doom scrolling and got ratioed, which
was low key mid, but the playlist was busting, so
I still slayed period.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
So tou touch grass and soft launch, I still don't
really understand. So touch grass just means go outside, get
out of the situation completely.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Yeah, basically, like you don't actually have to physically go
outside and touch grass. But to be like I went
and like had my own moment, like maybe you remove
yourself from the situation to so you're on social media
at the center kind of if you're.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
On social media and you're like I'm done with this
for a minute and you go make a sandwich and
watch TV, is that touching grass?
Speaker 2 (19:07):
No? I feel like you'd have to go outside, okay,
but you don't have to. I feel like some people
say go touch grass as in, like you play too
many video games, you're on social media too much, go
touch some nature and like in tune is whatever you.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Use it as like a touch grass, like yeah, get
out of here.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Yeah, Well, because there's like the problem nowadays are iPad kids,
whether you were a gen zer or a gen X
or an alpha alpha gen or whatever, the iPad kids
are usually you can kind of tell as they get
older with how they act or how maybe severely that
they were an iPad kid and you're like, oh my god,
(19:47):
go touch grass. This is like an unbearable experience to
be having with another human right now, that's definitely an insult.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
The last thing I don't get is the soft launch piece.
So just start at the beginning. Read it. I'm not
read it one more time, and I'm not I'm not
full of horseship. I will do. Just read the first
half of it.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
I will say, just this part.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Just we gotta start at the beginning, so I understand
the context. Don't understand the context.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
You do, yes you do, trust me.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
I don't get it, Yes you do. But then see
but then I need to know what the situation finish.
But then my ex soft launched her situation ship. But
I don't know what the situation was.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Just start at the beginning.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
It has nothing so difficult that it has nothing to
do with it. I promise you. The line before that
is talking about leaving no crumbs about the matters guy
at the thing. It's got nothing to do with this.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
It's just what did what was he doing that made
him eat crumbs? Is he hungry?
Speaker 2 (20:45):
You already understood that part.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Just start at the beginning and it will all makes
sense to me.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
No, it's not going to make sense.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
I'm not going to understand.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
My ex soft launched her situationship and it was giving
beij Flag energy. So I dipped. But the platform matters
that it has nothing to do with it. Are you
so mad because you're PMO right now, pm O, I g.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Soft launched her situationship. So if it's your ex and she,
I don't know why you'd be mad about that, that
means she's not telling a lot of people. She low
key half assed posted about it like no big deal,
(21:44):
just holding.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Hands with another person, like exactly what I mean in
the business world.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
And then what comes after that?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
You didn't hard launch, You didn't say this is my girlfriend, ah,
but you kind of mentioned it a little bit to
let them know you're with.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Someone, almost like a sneak.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
No, you're just you're just soft launching your partners or situationship.
You know it's not even your partner, says situationship. You
you post it exactly, you're holding hands with somebody.
Speaker 1 (22:10):
And then what comes what comes right after that?
Speaker 2 (22:13):
And it was giving beij Flag energy. So I dipped.
I'm about it end the podcast right now? Are we done?
Can we be done with this?
Speaker 1 (22:26):
Pretty good?
Speaker 2 (22:26):
No, you didn't know you didn't And I always say
that because I'm mad. That made me read it like
eleven times.
Speaker 1 (22:33):
What was the last sentence? Though, so I dipped and
then what?
Speaker 2 (22:36):
Right? I think we're done?
Speaker 1 (22:37):
What was the last sentence?
Speaker 2 (22:40):
I think this podcast has ended.
Welcome to Daughter Issues. I'm your host, David C. Smalley.
My guest today is to listen.
Speaker 2 (00:07):
You get it wrong every time, my guest today, guest.
But it's called daughter issues. Let's think that. No, let's
just think about it.
Speaker 1 (00:14):
Look, okay, look, you should actually open the show anyway,
because this one is yours.
Speaker 2 (00:18):
Yeah, but I end the show, and your whole attitude
is that if.
Speaker 1 (00:21):
This podcast is ended, this podcast is ended.
Speaker 2 (00:24):
You just here to PMO, aren't you do you know
what that means?
Speaker 1 (00:26):
Okay, PMO, pull my octopus?
Speaker 2 (00:31):
Wow?
Speaker 1 (00:33):
No, oh, piss me off?
Speaker 2 (00:35):
Oh okay, getting there, just.
Speaker 1 (00:38):
Here to piss me off? The context help me out. Okay,
we're doing gen z slang.
Speaker 2 (00:41):
They are doing gen Z's Welcome back to Daughter Issues.
We're going to be doing gen Z slang.
Speaker 1 (00:48):
We did gen Z slang once.
Speaker 2 (00:51):
Part two.
Speaker 1 (00:52):
We've had this podcast for a while. We have almost
two years now or maybe yet two years.
Speaker 2 (00:56):
That's crazy, and it's just now starting to look like this.
Speaker 1 (01:01):
Yeah, thanks Daniel, Thanks Daniel.
Speaker 2 (01:05):
Now this is very when I say, gen Z.
Speaker 1 (01:11):
Hold on, what is going on with your fingernails right now?
Speaker 2 (01:14):
Do you have a problem.
Speaker 1 (01:15):
It's like the Wizard of Oz gave you one.
Speaker 2 (01:17):
Wish and I would ask for these every time.
Speaker 1 (01:22):
My goodness, only what I can think of, fabulous, thank you.
It looks like something Jeremy Charles would be like click
click click.
Speaker 2 (01:33):
Mm. You can't get his name right, Christopher Charles, James Charles,
James Charles or Jeffrey Star. There's not just too. By
the way, there's multiple makeup artists.
Speaker 1 (01:45):
They're all one of those two.
Speaker 2 (01:47):
Okay, anyway, this is very gen Z slaying like packed.
I would say the average gen Z doesn't use a
lot of these. I guess it's act actually kind of,
it's actually kind of I wanna call it ironic, almost
like on purpose, like I'll use a lot of slang
to be silly, not in my everyday to be serious.
Speaker 1 (02:10):
Okay, so.
Speaker 2 (02:12):
This was I asked, Okay, I'm gonna nail it. Let
me just get real hold on. I asked chat GBT
to give me a paragraph just packed with gen Z slang.
And I know what it means, but no one would
ever actually say it, of course, and it's very cringey,
but that's what we're here for. You have to kind
of tell me what it means. But I think first
(02:34):
I'm going to do some individual words and we're just
gonna kind of get an idea of what you know about.
Speaker 1 (02:39):
Okay, I've been. I've been in the comments section of
TikTok right, so I think I know most of these.
I'm gonna I feel like I'm going to do pretty good.
Speaker 2 (02:48):
I do think with the individual words, you're gonna get it.
The paragraph, I think is where you're gonna have some
some issues.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
I think the opposite, because I think with the paragraph,
I'll have context. So yeah, but sure.
Speaker 2 (03:01):
There's not much context ready.
Speaker 1 (03:04):
Okay. The paragraph is like all slang English and kind
nobody would talk like that. I see what you're saying.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
No, I guess well you'll you'll find out.
Speaker 1 (03:14):
Okay, I can't wait for this paragraph.
Speaker 2 (03:15):
I think you'll know most of the ones, the ones
I'm about to say, so we'll see.
Speaker 1 (03:19):
Wait, are the ones that you're gonna ask me? Also
in the paragraph, I.
Speaker 2 (03:22):
Don't think so or maybe some okay, maybe some bring
it okay, riz.
Speaker 1 (03:28):
Oh I know that one that's like charisma.
Speaker 2 (03:36):
Yeah, it sure for charisma. It is just about the hands, like, okay.
Speaker 1 (03:42):
Charisma no cap No cap means I'm not lying, you know,
drip is cool clothes.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
Okay, yeah, yeah, NPC.
Speaker 1 (03:57):
I think that refers to like a game character. I
think it's non player character, meaning it's like a person
in a video game that's like a running around bumping
into shit that they don't actually like, there's not a
person controlling it. Yeah, and so I think gen Z
would refer to just like a generic human in that way,
(04:19):
like they don't do anything with their lives. They get up,
go to work, eat their sandwich, go home. They have
nothing to strive for. They don't care about anything. They're
an NPC kind of saying somebody is boring or a
background character. The l word.
Speaker 2 (04:35):
Oh right, totally, yeah, definitely not Okay. Eight when someone
says eight, what does that mean? Not the numbers?
Speaker 1 (04:44):
How would they spell it? Oh, someone did very well
at something.
Speaker 2 (04:49):
They left no crumb.
Speaker 1 (04:50):
She ate that and left no crumb.
Speaker 2 (04:54):
Oh yeah, this is great Jeremy Charles clut And then
what about like it's giving I say that one. I
say that one.
Speaker 1 (05:02):
It's giving is like it's kind of what it means,
like what it says, like it's giving the vibe of
something else, like it's reminding me of this certain thing.
Speaker 2 (05:11):
Okay, good, mid.
Speaker 1 (05:15):
Mid range, middle meh, not impressed, average average.
Speaker 2 (05:20):
Yeah, busting, I'm crushing it.
Speaker 1 (05:24):
Yeah, busting. I'm busting right now. Oh my god, I'm busting,
busting what I'm I'm doing good.
Speaker 2 (05:32):
I'm like, my inside's hurt. I'm so uncomfortable even saying
these words.
Speaker 1 (05:36):
Busting means good usually what about food?
Speaker 2 (05:41):
Okay, good?
Speaker 1 (05:41):
Yeah, this food's busting?
Speaker 2 (05:43):
Yeah okay, correct, ready, Yeah, that used to.
Speaker 1 (05:45):
Mean something else when someone was busting what they were
being separated by color to go to schools. Oh, they
were busting into the neighborhood.
Speaker 2 (05:57):
Oh yeah, it's not good.
Speaker 1 (05:59):
They were being bust Well, it was good.
Speaker 2 (06:00):
So it's got somewhat of a new meaning.
Speaker 1 (06:04):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (06:05):
Soft launch.
Speaker 1 (06:08):
Okay, well, I know what that means in the business world.
So I don't know what the hell gen Z did
to this one. So I don't know, but I'm going
to say in the business world it means, you know,
I kind of did a soft launch with my my album.
They came out. I didn't tell anybody, Oopsie, Daisy, I
guess it just came out, but I I released it,
(06:32):
but I didn't promote it because I had also just
filmed my comedy special. So it wasn't like a hard
launch where I was like, everybody, go get this. I
have to drop this new album. I just did it
and didn't say anything. That's like a soft launch.
Speaker 2 (06:45):
So how would gen Z use it? Let me actually,
let me see if it's in the paragraph, because if
it is, I'm not going to tell you what it means.
If it's not lunch.
Speaker 1 (06:55):
I'm gonna say gen Z means gen Z is using
that to mean like like they didn't really try that hard.
Speaker 2 (07:04):
Okay, it is in the paragraphs. I'm not going to
tell you, but I think you'll get it immediately.
Speaker 1 (07:09):
I'm not right, No, okay, slaps that's what you get
when you stay out too late.
Speaker 2 (07:22):
Okay, that's no, that's the gen experts.
Speaker 1 (07:24):
Yeah, gen Z, something's busting.
Speaker 2 (07:29):
Okay, sure slaps. How would you use it?
Speaker 1 (07:35):
Chicken slaps?
Speaker 2 (07:36):
Okay, yeah, that's good. Let me see. Uh you know, Sleigh,
I'll use that one.
Speaker 1 (07:45):
Something, Queen Sleigh Hunt. It's all in that.
Speaker 2 (07:51):
Yeah, I know you've got us.
Speaker 1 (07:52):
Say that means do well, my friend? What okaylease do well?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
No?
Speaker 1 (07:59):
No, no, you're doing very well. You look great.
Speaker 2 (08:04):
Your outfit is Sleigh.
Speaker 1 (08:06):
Oh you look very not like Santa.
Speaker 2 (08:08):
You're you're slaying right now?
Speaker 1 (08:10):
You are slaying. Yeah, so you're saying slay to someone
who's already accomplishing that.
Speaker 2 (08:16):
Yes, like if they're But if.
Speaker 1 (08:17):
They're already doing it, why are you yelling it at
the person?
Speaker 2 (08:20):
What do you mean? You mean like you look good?
That's why you're yelling at the person. It's a compliment.
Speaker 1 (08:26):
Why not you have slayed that?
Speaker 2 (08:28):
They say that?
Speaker 1 (08:29):
Oh, okay, that's correct. You are slaying this episode.
Speaker 2 (08:36):
Capy Bear Vibes.
Speaker 1 (08:45):
Friendly with everyone. Capy Bearers don't really have enemies. They
just like cuddle up and everyone's the homie.
Speaker 2 (08:53):
I feel like I would take that one. But but
you're not using the right words.
Speaker 1 (08:57):
Is it a ho?
Speaker 2 (08:58):
What?
Speaker 1 (09:00):
No? Why are you so offended because.
Speaker 2 (09:02):
That you just said you just took a hard left turn?
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Well, you said I wouldn't take it that. I'm like,
it's somebody who's friendly with everyone might be a little
too friendly.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
There given Wow, No, No, what what would it mean
if someone's giving Caby bearra vibes that. No, you were
onto something.
Speaker 1 (09:30):
You said, I took a hard left turn. So I
was trying to come.
Speaker 2 (09:32):
Back to part but before that being friendly.
Speaker 1 (09:37):
You said someone's too nice. Yeah, they push over? Okay,
am I getting am I not slay? Uh?
Speaker 2 (09:47):
You got it somewhat. Let me see if it's in
my paragraph. I don't think it is. Yeah, no it's not.
It means that someone is very chill, unbothered, like energy,
so like you're onto something when you're like very friendly,
doesn't have enemies. There's someone just really chill and unbothered.
Speaker 1 (10:06):
But most hells are pretty bothered.
Speaker 2 (10:09):
So you're you're you're not wrong about that? Uh you
know glow up mm hmm.
Speaker 1 (10:15):
Yeah, that you used to look busted and now you're slaying.
Speaker 2 (10:21):
That was good, okay? Uh?
Speaker 1 (10:25):
Stan, So y'all got this from us? This was uh?
This is an eminem song.
Speaker 2 (10:31):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (10:32):
Stan is like a like a fan of someone. They're
they're they're like completely yeah, you got it, obsessed with someone.
Speaker 2 (10:45):
It's also used and that's kind of what says here
too to too strongly supports someone or obsess over. But
we also will use it like if someone makes a
good point like Stan, like it's kind of wow.
Speaker 1 (10:55):
It's all way out to I stand that moment.
Speaker 2 (10:59):
Yes, yeah, yeah, like almost like preach like stand yeah,
kind of Yeah, I would not have known that, you know, POV.
Speaker 1 (11:09):
Uh just like personal view from a perspective, someone's perspective.
Speaker 2 (11:17):
Just point of view.
Speaker 1 (11:18):
Okay, yeah, yeah, what did I say personal view?
Speaker 2 (11:21):
Yeah? I think so.
Speaker 1 (11:22):
Oh you know why when you work in a place
that has a fleet of cars that you would drive,
like pest Control, police cab, you have a car that
you're assigned to. POV is your personally owned vehicle. So
I was using p for personal I wasn't thinking of
a point of view. But yeah, core memory, Oh yeah,
(11:45):
I mean that's it is what it says. It's a
core memory for a like a child from your.
Speaker 2 (11:50):
Childhood, nostalgic moment or memory. Sometimes though people will say
they feel like they're living in one.
Speaker 1 (11:56):
Currently something huge happens, you're car memory.
Speaker 2 (12:01):
Yeah. Absolutely. Doom scrolling.
Speaker 1 (12:07):
I feel like I do this every night. My algorithm
thinks that's all I want to see. So I feel
like doom scrolling is just like upsetting or bad news,
and you're just like scrolling through like your Instagram feed
and it's just or your TikTok feed and it's it's
(12:28):
just horrible stuff. So yes, and an algorithm are like, oh,
you've been watching a lot of this stuff. Here's more
Donald Trump, and then here's more Donald Trump. And guess
what city he's taking over now? Oh, and guess what
else is illegal? And now gay people can't get married again,
and guess what, and guess what and guess.
Speaker 2 (12:45):
What and you're just like a So you're right, but
people kind of use it now, not really in just
that it's bad news, like doom scrolling is almost just
like you get in a loop. Not a loop, but
you're like locked in and you just kind of mindlessly
are scrolling. So I think the original definition, you're right,
but people use it now to mean kind of like
(13:06):
you just doom scroll. You just you start, you open
the app, and you're just scrolling because you're now doomed.
Do you already open the app? Kind of you're doomed, yeah,
like you're locked in kind of No, you can't stop
scrolling basically scrolling.
Speaker 1 (13:18):
You can't stop, So it's not you don't think it's
about the content anymore.
Speaker 2 (13:21):
I think some people use it that way, but I've
seen other people just use it.
Speaker 1 (13:24):
To be like I'm locked into scrolling.
Speaker 2 (13:27):
Yeah, yeah, yeah, here comes the paragraph.
Speaker 1 (13:33):
Oh I thought that was a phrase jenl z No,
I'm like jin that means about to say a lot.
Speaker 2 (13:38):
God, this one's I can't.
Speaker 1 (13:40):
Even you gotta get through it without messing up so
that we can post it.
Speaker 2 (13:44):
Okay, well wow, no pressure things yeah and action. No,
this is bad. Okay, ready, this is horrible. This is
this is bad. Ready no cap. I was straight vibing
at this NPC live stream and this dude with mad
Riz totally ate and left no crumbs. But then my
(14:04):
ex soft launched her situationship and it was giving beige
flag energy, so I dipped to touch grass. But then
I started doom scrolling and got ratioed, which was low
key mid, but the playlist was busting, so I still slayed.
Speaker 3 (14:17):
Period period, period is that period with a D and
then in T at the end, all right, a couple
of things in there I didn't catch.
Speaker 1 (14:30):
Yeah, I get it for me. There's a couple things
in that I didn't catch. Ratiode I have no idea
what that means. We just read that section again. Yeah,
so I got ratio is that what it said?
Speaker 2 (14:45):
But then I started doom scrolling and got ratioed, which
was low key mid, but the playlist was busting' so
I still slayed.
Speaker 1 (14:53):
Yeah, I get I get all that. I don't understand
what I got. Ratio means.
Speaker 2 (15:00):
Got ratio considering it like kind of an insult, Like,
but how.
Speaker 1 (15:08):
Would they get ratioed by just scrolling?
Speaker 2 (15:11):
You must have to do with how.
Speaker 1 (15:14):
Would someone be insulted by? How would how would someone
get insulted by just scrolling?
Speaker 2 (15:19):
By being on social media?
Speaker 1 (15:20):
Oh so doom strolling doesn't just mean scrolling, it just
means I got on social media.
Speaker 2 (15:25):
No, doom scrolling usually means you got locked into scrolling
and you can't stop. Some people maybe it's bad news.
Some people use it as just like.
Speaker 1 (15:33):
Maybe it's scrolling but also interacting with posts.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
No, I think what they're saying is is you started
do you were doom scrolling, You were just scrolling, but
while on the app, you go to your page or
you go to to do other things on social media,
and then you find out you got ratio? Okay, that's yeah,
I guess. Okay, it's when a reply gets more likes
(15:57):
than the original posts.
Speaker 1 (15:59):
Oh the ratio? So oh yeah, you know what's funny
is I often use the term ratio to talk about
how a post is going to take off or it's
not going to do well. Use the ratio. Yeah, and
so when when there's comments, a lot of comments and
not a lot of likes, that means all the comments
are disagreeing or trashing your content. Yeah, right, what was it?
(16:24):
There was another word in there that I didn't catch.
There was one more word.
Speaker 2 (16:26):
I'm so glad that's over.
Speaker 1 (16:28):
I need you to read that paragraph again, the whole thing. Yeah,
so I can find the word.
Speaker 2 (16:36):
Can I guess the word?
Speaker 1 (16:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (16:38):
I think you're still trying to figure out soft launch.
Speaker 1 (16:40):
Yep, I think that may have been it. But go
ahead and read it just so to make sure.
Speaker 2 (16:45):
No, Cap I was straight. You are evil? What do
you mean because you give an eyes to the camera. No,
you're malicious.
Speaker 1 (16:52):
I'm not. I'm dating.
Speaker 2 (16:53):
No, Cap, I was straight.
Speaker 1 (16:54):
VI.
Speaker 2 (16:54):
I've been at this NPC live stream and this dude
with mad Riz totally ate and left no crumbs. But
then my ex soft launched her such relationship and it
was giving beige flag energy, So I.
Speaker 1 (17:02):
Know that is what beige flag energy, not green, not
red boring? Is beige flag energy boring?
Speaker 2 (17:09):
Ummm No, I feel like I feel like started to
give maybe maybe boring, but I would see beige flag
and maybe any look that one up beige flag, I
would see as like like oh like yet like a
yellow flag, but I don't think the one says yellow
flag like not quite a red flag, but it's like
(17:31):
almost red. Like you started getting maybe suspicious sus if
you will. Okay, for the purpose of that.
Speaker 1 (17:39):
Started over because the the you are full. No, no, no, no,
I want to hear. No, I want to hear the
situationship soft launch line. So just start at the beginning.
Be crunching into the mic. I don't edit this podcast anymore,
so you're just making problems for Daniel.
Speaker 2 (17:59):
No, you don't have to listen to it later. Okay, Okay,
you are doing this on purpose.
Speaker 1 (18:07):
Horse connect with my audience out there. You have your camera,
I have mine.
Speaker 2 (18:12):
Just started over, please, I kind of want you to
read it. No, you got it, fam no cap. I
was straight vibin at this NPC live stream and this
dude with Madras totally ate and left no crumbs. But
then my ex soft launched her Situationship and it was
giving beige flag energy. So I dipped to touch grass
(18:33):
and then I started doom scrolling and got ratioed, which
was low key mid, but the playlist was busting, so
I still slayed period.
Speaker 1 (18:41):
So tou touch grass and soft launch, I still don't
really understand. So touch grass just means go outside, get
out of the situation completely.
Speaker 2 (18:49):
Yeah, basically, like you don't actually have to physically go
outside and touch grass. But to be like I went
and like had my own moment, like maybe you remove
yourself from the situation to so you're on social media
at the center kind of if you're.
Speaker 1 (19:02):
On social media and you're like I'm done with this
for a minute and you go make a sandwich and
watch TV, is that touching grass?
Speaker 2 (19:07):
No? I feel like you'd have to go outside, okay,
but you don't have to. I feel like some people
say go touch grass as in, like you play too
many video games, you're on social media too much, go
touch some nature and like in tune is whatever you.
Speaker 1 (19:19):
Use it as like a touch grass, like yeah, get
out of here.
Speaker 2 (19:24):
Yeah, Well, because there's like the problem nowadays are iPad kids,
whether you were a gen zer or a gen X
or an alpha alpha gen or whatever, the iPad kids
are usually you can kind of tell as they get
older with how they act or how maybe severely that
they were an iPad kid and you're like, oh my god,
(19:47):
go touch grass. This is like an unbearable experience to
be having with another human right now, that's definitely an insult.
Speaker 1 (19:54):
The last thing I don't get is the soft launch piece.
So just start at the beginning. Read it. I'm not
read it one more time, and I'm not I'm not
full of horseship. I will do. Just read the first
half of it.
Speaker 2 (20:06):
I will say, just this part.
Speaker 1 (20:08):
Just we gotta start at the beginning, so I understand
the context. Don't understand the context.
Speaker 2 (20:12):
You do, yes you do, trust me.
Speaker 4 (20:14):
I don't get it, Yes you do. But then see
but then I need to know what the situation finish.
But then my ex soft launched her situation ship. But
I don't know what the situation was.
Speaker 1 (20:24):
Just start at the beginning.
Speaker 2 (20:26):
It has nothing so difficult that it has nothing to
do with it. I promise you. The line before that
is talking about leaving no crumbs about the matters guy
at the thing. It's got nothing to do with this.
Speaker 1 (20:38):
It's just what did what was he doing that made
him eat crumbs? Is he hungry?
Speaker 2 (20:45):
You already understood that part.
Speaker 1 (20:47):
Just start at the beginning and it will all makes
sense to me.
Speaker 2 (20:50):
No, it's not going to make sense.
Speaker 1 (20:54):
I'm not going to understand.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
My ex soft launched her situationship and it was giving
beij Flag energy. So I dipped. But the platform matters
that it has nothing to do with it. Are you
so mad because you're PMO right now, pm O, I g.
Speaker 1 (21:21):
Soft launched her situationship. So if it's your ex and she,
I don't know why you'd be mad about that, that
means she's not telling a lot of people. She low
key half assed posted about it like no big deal,
(21:44):
just holding.
Speaker 2 (21:45):
Hands with another person, like exactly what I mean in
the business world.
Speaker 1 (21:50):
And then what comes after that?
Speaker 2 (21:51):
You didn't hard launch, You didn't say this is my girlfriend, ah,
but you kind of mentioned it a little bit to
let them know you're with.
Speaker 1 (21:58):
Someone, almost like a sneak.
Speaker 2 (22:00):
No, you're just you're just soft launching your partners or situationship.
You know it's not even your partner, says situationship. You

Speaker 1 (22:10):
And then what comes what comes right after that?
Speaker 2 (22:13):
And it was giving beij Flag energy. So I dipped.

Can we be done with this?
Speaker 1 (22:26):

No, you didn't know you didn't And I always say
that because I'm mad. That made me read it like
eleven times.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
